NCS Product Synopsis The Star Wars Light-Up Chopsticks
arrived today and we'll need about three days to
process and ship all the preorders that we've
received over the past year and a half since the
initial announcement, recall, and reproduction. All
preorders and any new orders should be dispatched by Thursday of this
week and the bulk will be done today and tomorrow.
Thanks.

Record snowfall in
western Tokyo is hampering transportation and delivery of goods and vendors in
the city alerted us of possible delays in their shipments later this week. If
there are flight delays out of Tokyo, we'll post an update by Thursday.

Monday, February 17, 2014

NCS Product Synopsis The Star Wars Light-Up Chopsticks have
arrived at UPS' warehouse in Maspeth, New York City,
this morning but since today is President's Day,
they marked our building as closed even though this
building we toil inside is open 364 days a year
including Christmas and New Year's. We've told UPS
time and again that the building is always
open but it seems that it's standard procedure to
mark commercial buildings as closed during holidays.
Due to this delay, NCS
will begin shipping the chopsticks tomorrow and we
expect all shipments to be dispatched by Thursday.

We noticed a lot of customers have moved since they placed their
preorders in 2012 so we've sent out emails over the
past weekend to re-check addresses. Thanks to
everyone who has already replied with their updated
addresses including one who moved from the United
States to Australia and another who's now in Japan
since their preorder purchases.

The Japanese Playstation 4 launches in Japan this
coming Sunday but vendors are expected to take
delivery of the consoles by Wednesday-Thursday of
this week in preparation for the weekend. We're
unsure of the initial allocations and prices but we
should have more details by mid-week.

NCS Product Synopsis
There's a jackhammer destroying
concrete in the office above ours so we'll be in and
out of the office today in an effort to escape the
bone-rattling tremors reverberating throughout the
building. How is this allowed during a business day?
No one knows but according to the grunt jackhammer
operator, "They told me to do this today. The
building inspector is coming next week. Gotta do it
today." Calls to the building management weren't
returned.

In other news, the crack maintenance staff in the building didn't
shovel the ramp to the second floor garage properly
and two vans were stuck for over an hour as snow was
cleared. Comedy.

Thursday, February 13, 2014

Update: February 13, 2014 Due to a nor'easter that's
currently in progress in New York City, please
note that USPS and UPS shipments may not be
shipped today in the event that trucks aren't
able to navigate through the snow-laden roads
this afternoon. If there are shipment issues
this afternoon, please note that normal shipping
should resume by tomorrow.
